Itchy Thighs During Period? Posted: 11-06-04 13:41pm
Hi.. During my period (usually on the
3rd/4th day) i've been getting ichy thighs
(near the bikini line n bum cheek) when I
sleep at night.. And I cant help it but
to scratch (in my sleep). I've been
having that for quite a while, was
wondering if this is normal? I dont want
to scratch it but cant help it >.<
and it usually goes away after a day or
two. Sometimes it can get abit sore, but
this doesnt concern me much as it doesnt
hurt me or anything.
I normally use pads (kotex), could the
skin be sensitive to the material?
Also, my thigh and lower back feels kinds
of get "chubby" on the first day of my
period, is this normal also?

Could be the pad.I've never heard of his
problem before.I do feel very "bottom
heavy"during my periods and swear that my
thighs get bigger when I have my
period!!Good luck to you!Patty

Itchy pad scratching against your bum
maybe? Pads are like diapers- not fun to
change and a pain in the ass- mayeb try
tampons?
